V10 first ride, thanks bloah/ dylan delivers V13


Did a quick session on the water today.

ENE 30-35mph with swells 8- 10ft

went to the "surfers" beach today.

for the area some of the big breaks and rollers and not too close together either.

tidal current had to be 6kt range.

any way V10.... quick my friends, quick indeed!

felt more like a c-kite than a depower , very sensitive to bar movement and the bar pressure was light and the action input made up for the light pressure in the effort department . flight and jumps where effortless and floaty but hey it was 30+ folks. and will loop very tightly compared to the V13/v16 for obvious reasons


very nice thank you bloah

new v13 from dylan tomorrow

recv'd one v13 from dylan and gave it a quick down winder

super tidy on the pack

the stick set was so nice and the pack still fresh, i immediately placed back up sticks in kite and placed the pack /sticks in the "for decoration only" spot so i wouldn't ruin them.

a little silicone on the zips and all good to go. had the tip to tip bridle stuff on it at one time but no line present, dont like external mods for the arcs, seems the extra tension points are begging for a tear in high winds.

just what i need
many thanks Dylan

nice breeze showed up today 13-15mph SSE.

love being back on a V13 ... nice and quick in the light air

trans. air with a loop ....finally... didn't even think about it just filled in the empty spot

then jetted out about 4 miles chasing a wind surfer.

gave a JL 140 signature series a couple laps . great board but requires a ton of air to run me up wind ...just not a light wind board. my 145 trucked up wind right on top of the windsurfer. and no fins which surprised him too

v13 it is choice

i have gotten out on the water in about 12/13 mph on v13 with good success not strong up wind at that point but can hold my position with airs on one end of the laps but too much farting around i loss some ground.

but in 15knts rocks a ton

13m really fits my size and not too bad on the arms/shoulders for long sessions

i recently got a 140x43 board and works perfect, smooth bottom, nice shape, good pop, switches super easy. starkites sprint "a low $ super star" it beat out JL sig. because it runs better in light air. plus i don't feel bad if it gets beat up, pretty tough board
